How many calories to eat during bulk cycle for maximum growth and minimum fat gain

How many calories to eat during bulk cycle for maximum growth and minimum fat gain

Hi bros,

How much do you weight and how much do you eat average daily during your bulk cycle.

I usually eat between 3500 - 4800 calories range depending on my weight majority of the time. That would be for 150lbs - 180lbs weight for me.

im 159-160lbs right now. How much do you think I should eat? I usually eat 90% clean and a junk meal every now and then. I usually try to get protein 2-2.5x body weight, carbs 3-3.5x body weight, fats 0.6-0.8x body weight.

thats how the calories ends up.

The key isn't the amount of calories you eat...

It's how much your daily calorie surplus is...

For minimum fat gains you want to have about a daily 300-500 calorie surplus daily while keeping your macros in check...

when I bulk I avoid cardio and sit around all day and do nothing except for gym time so I don't have to eat as much. Everybody's calories are going to be different depending on their activity level and their metabolism so it is hard to recommend caloric intake for anybody other than yourself really...

This is why you calculate your BMR... It's not exact, but a good guidline to follow... Example BMR= 1900 cal.

Then you add the calories burned daily from workouts and/or cardio example-600 cal.
